Someone described to me in detail how your computer resolves hostnames.

Probably because of your DNS configuration?
Thanks for the great explanation
Huh. I guess I didn’t fully understand how DNS works.
My understanding was that DNS servers propagated their listing to other DNS servers and you just had to point your computer to the one you want and it would just query that one. And if a URL can’t be found, then it’s probably because
A) it doesn’t exist
B) it exists but hasn’t been fully propagated yet
C) the DNS server listing is outdated
Technically, Ubuntu supports it’s LTS versions for something like 12 years I think?
Anyway, you can get Ubuntu 14.04 LTS still with the i386 32bit ISO.

I personally would install that and install something like FVWM95 or Blackbox WM or some other ancien desktop environment.
Just send them to JustWatch.
Probably pay for whatever activity I can afford with 15$ to spend time with my partner. Love her to bits and enjoy every minute I spend with her.
Where did you meet those people? Because most of the people I met during university, while doing a software engineering degree, were software engineering students who all used Linux in some way.
I don’t think it’s “Linux” that should be advertised, but Desktop OS distributions in this case.
What’s going to catch people’s eye is going to be the desktop experience, the killer apps that come with it, and why it’s better than Windows or Mac, in which case, it isn’t yet.
It’s getting close, but it’s not there yet.
I’m very skeptical about online cloud-based password managers. I don’t trust that at all. I still prefer to use a local off-line password manager like KeePassXC.
Sorry, but I don’t think that’s a pretty positive and constructive attitude to have in a thread where someone is asking for help. Especially if they are newbies.
In fact, OP has answered my reply.
Would installing them in virtual machines be a good option for you?
It would allow you to test them without having to go through all the trouble of repartitioning and risking to lose your data.
What’s your objective here? What is it you want to do with all these Linux distros?
If your PC already has Windows, you can create an installation USB key.
There’s no need for a Windows key because your system is already registered with Microsoft. It creates a unique ID from your computer’s peripherals.
So just pop in the USB key, boot from the usb key and follow the instructions. To boot from the USB key you might need to go configure the boot order in your BIOS.
See? No need to thank me. ;)
Take a bank card with an NFC chip and put it inside your phone case.
I’ve been running Linux on Nvidia graphics for 24 years. It’s never been an issue.
